Introduction 1.1. Headunit history Although the E65 (7 Series) introduced the iDrive concept it wasn't until the launch on the E63 (6 Series) in 2003 that the first headunit was introduced at BMW under the name Car Communication Computer (CCC). This device combined the tuner functions (radio), navigation, speech processing, a user interface and a DVD/CD drive in one component (for the first time in a BMW vehicle). For this reason this central control unit was referred to as the headunit. With the launch of the F01 (in the fall of 2008) the 2nd generation Fleadunit High the Car Information Computer (CIC) was introduced. CIC was a completely revised control concept with one of the highlights being an integrated hard drive, on which both the map data for the navigation and a music collection with relevant music track database (Gracenote ), were stored. Numerous external receivers (IBOC, SDARS) were also gradually incorporated into the headunit hardware. BMW Assist and BMW Online were supplemented with Google Search and displayed in the menu BMW Services or ConnectedDrive (from 03/2011). The Active Voice Recognition was further developed and supplemented with a one-shot destination input. , Option code Marketing Technical Training Diagnosis Series introduction 609 Navigation Car Car E63 (2003) Professional Communication Communication Computer (CCC) Computer (CCC) 609 Navigation Car Information Car Information F01 (2008) Professional Computer (CIC) Computer (CIC) 609 Navigation Headunit High Headunit High F01 LCI Professional (HU-H) (HU-H) (2012) 1.2. 3rd Generation Headunit High The 3rd generation of the Headunit High introduced in July 2012 is part of the model upgrade for the 7-Series Life Cycle Impulse (LCI) as well as for the 5-Series sedan and Gran Turismo. The Headunit High will also be installed in the F30 hybrid and F31 as from their market launch. 1.3. New features The CIC user interface has been completely revised and upgraded with a futuristic (3D effect) enhanced perspective view. The structure of the individual menus is now shown in virtual high resolution with enhanced graphics. The symbols on the symbol bars have been standardized and a variety of movements and animations have also been added. Images of vehicles and objects (previously only visible in the Options menu) have now been integrated directly in the submenus for a more sophisticated and ultra modern look and feel. 1 Headunit High 1. Introduction BMW BMW r.] Hauptmenti CD/Multtatdb Multimedia 1 / Radio Teleton 5 f N*v* 9 «t»on KontaMe BMW Dienste \ I Fahmugmfo / Einjtellungen / Radio Teleton Navigation V “ J Office S ConnectedDrive r Fahrzeuglnfo Emsteilungen Main menu and start screen; comparison of CIC (left) to Headunit High 3rd Generation HU-H (right) The hardware was completely revised and is now equipped with a new 1.3 GHz processor, 1 GB working memory, 8 GB flash memory and a 200 GB SATA hard disk. And as with the earlier headunits, the flash memory and hard disk cannot be replaced. The music collection has been enhanced and equipped with new functions (e.g. favorites). The USB interface in the center console can now play video files, as well as audio files. It is also used for importing/exporting data and updating navigation maps, as the USB in the glove compartment has been discontinued. New to the IBOC is the display of album art and station logos (these are only displayed if the station provides such content over the HD digital signal) With regard to telephone/connectivity, the main telephone and additional telephone are now handled equally for the first time and shown together in the Office menu. The Combox media was integrated in the headunit complete with all functions and interfaces. In addition, the headunit- supported telephone service (SA6NH) was integrated and has made redundant the use of the Combox media. The Combox with telematics functions has been replaced with its successor, the Telematic Communication Box (TCB). The Rear Seat Entertainment system (RSE) was completely revised and equipped with new hardware (RSE control unit and new rear monitors) with new functions like zoning, serving function. But the big addition to RSE would be the ability to use Navigation and set destinations from the rear seat. F01 vehicles with the ZRP option (Rear Entertainment Package) will have the controller integrated into the center armrest of the backseat while the other vehicles will use a wireless remote control. The Headunit High is equipped with a message dictation "Speech-to-text" function to answer and compose text messages and emails directly via the Drive and the use of a BMW “Tested” phone. A Voice memo function is also available where voice memos can be recorded , saved to a USB or sent via email as sound files. 2 Headunit High 1. Introduction 1.4. Glossary 1.4.1. Streaming The process of data transfer for audio or video files is called "streaming", "livestream" or in brief "stream". The data in this case is transmitted via radio. The significant difference to the radio is that there the transmitted data can be received from a variety of receivers. In the case of streaming a point- by-point connection between the media server of the sender and the receiver is realized for each user as per his requirements, etc. In this regard the complete file does not have to be sent to the receiver to start playback. Playback can take place for the receiver as soon as the transmission has started. Examples for streaming include the Bluetooth audio streaming. 1.4.2. Codec Codec (made-up word from English co derand dec Oder) is a procedure, which codes and decodes data or signals using digital means. Video or audio files are not changed during coding without any loss, but a dynamic reduction of the signal, as well as data compression, are performed, which result in deteriorations in quality depending on the extent and procedure. An example of this is the conversion of a CD digital audio file .wav to a compressed audio file .mp3. Video files can also be converted. An example of this is a .mov file converted using XviD Video codec to MPEG-4 video format. Due to the decline in quality (which is generally not noticeable for the user) we can reduce the necessary bandwidth or the required memory capacity (example .wav 70MB to .mp3 approx. 7MB). Furthermore, it is important to make a distinction between the coded data format, i.e. the audio and video format, and the container format. 1.4.3. Container A container or container format is a file in digital data processing which can contain different files and file types. Audio/Video container formats can contain at least one audio and video stream. Some formats also allow embedding of subtitles, menu structures or other content. A container format is thus only the cover for the files contained therein. A mpeg-4 container, for example a H.264 coded video, can be combined with a AAC audio or a Xvid coded video combined with MP3 audio. Containers are a basic requirement for video files, music also exists in a "raw" version, i.e. without the noise of containers. The content of a container is not visible from the outside. 3 Headunit High 1.

While navigation and contact details and the Gracenote database have retained the standard capacity as in the CIC, other areas have been expanded. For example the memory capacity for the music collection was increased by more than 8 GB to 20.5 GB. The interactive Owner's Manual (IBA) was expanded from 0.5 GB to 4 GB. The speech input system "iSpeech" (voice recognition) was also increased from 0.5 GB to 1.7 GB. With a reserve of 100 GB the storage capacity is more than sufficient even after several updates to the navigation data. 31 Headunit High 4.

Integrated flash memory To protect sensitive customer data such as "Address details" and "Settings" for example, a permanently integrated flash memory was installed in the Headunit High. The data is much more protected against external influences here than on a hard disk. The integrated flash memory is permanently installed and cannot be individually replaced or updated. 36 Headunit High 4.

The CID is directly connected to the headunit via an APIX data line. APIX (Automotive Pixel Link) is a bit-serial data transfer system with a data transfer rate of 1 Gbit/s on just one copper core pair. Each APIX data channel also has a bidirectional reverse channel. This reverse channel is used for transmitting status information (e.g. operating temperature of the CID), diagnosis information and control signals. Data transfer via the APIX data line has been optimized with regard to electromagnetic compatibility and power consumption. Because of the CID's low power consumption, the CID can be supplied with power via two separate current lines directly by the Headunit High, and there is no need for a separate power supply to the CID. The two copper core pairs and the two power supply leads are connected by a common connector to the headunit and the CID. Because of the high data transfer rate with low electromagnetic emissions, it is also possible to use copper wiring for applications with a high bandwidth requirement and to dispense with fiber optic networking. 4.3. External devices 4.3.1. AUX-IN connection with USB interface With the use of the Headunit High, the USB interface in the glove box is discontinued. Otherwise, the Headunit High USB audio/video interface and customer data import/export is always housed at the center console. There will thus only be one USB interface in the vehicle, available in the switchable versions (for vehicles with USB base plate) or non-switchable for vehicles without USB base plate. This connection is then used both to play external media and for data import/export such as navigation data for example. Video files With the new Headunit High for the first time it is possible to send video files using a memory medium (USB stick) to the headunit and play them there. Video and audio files are combined here in the container and sent as a digital signal via USB. A container file or a container is a file in digital data processing which can contain different files and file types. For details see Chapter 1.4.

Smartphone connection If the SA6NL is selected as telephone optional equipment, the connected SA6NF “Media interface for Smartphones" for BMW vehicles is generally installed with a video base plate. The vehicles are thus prepared for videos. Only the CVBS line to the headunit and the corresponding software are missing. CVBS line and software can also be ordered by the customer with the SA6NR "Apps". In addition to the USB connection of applications for the Smartphone (Apps), a video interface and the iPod remote control function, called "plug-in" is also installed in the vehicle (under the ConnectedDrive menu). 4.4. Telephone systems For the telephone systems of the Headunit High the optional equipment SA6NH — Hands-free Bluetooth and USB audio connection and the SA6NL Bluetooth and USB devices with BMW Assist are used. 4.4.1. Telephone-supported headunit With the introduction of the Headunit High it is now also possible to support the "telephone-supported headunit" (Inbox). This is available as standard in the BMW 5-Series, 6-Series and 7-Series, X5 and X6. This function is also activated in BMW 1 -Series, 3-Series and X3 (F25) vehicles with the order of a Headunit High (SA609 navigation), as SA6NH - hands-free system with USB interface is included automatically. The SA6NH Hands-free Bluetooth and USB audio connection includes a basic hands-free system (without cell phone charger base plate) and without external antenna, i.e. For the customer this means simple implementation of a hands-free system through a Bluetooth connection for cell phone and vehicle. Subsequent comparison of the SA6NH versions with Headunit Basic, CIC Basic 2, CIC and Headunit High. Installation of the slim-design version of the telephone control unit Combox Media with reduced range of functions as an interface is no longer required for the Headunit High. This is made possible through an antenna output for the Bluetooth antenna, as well as an integrated module for the Bluetooth connection with the customer cell phone. 40 Headunit High 4.

The so-called "One-Wire technology" in conjunction with the white standard Apple USB cable is required here to connect the Apple media player to the vehicle via the USB interface in the center console. The former Combox features: Bluetooth audio streaming, Office, album cover and software update continue to remain deactivated for SA6NH. The customer needs to order SA6NL for this. A It is important to note that “not all hardware configurations are available in all markets” and that available options way vary within the different BMW model series vehicles. 4.4.2. Telephone connection with snap-in adapter Option SA6NK connection for Bluetooth and USB devices is offered in many markets as a further expansion stage to the SA6NH. In addition to a hands-free system, a base plate for a snap-in adapter is also installed. This base plate has a charger for the cell phone and a connection for the external antenna. 41 Headunit High 4. System Components The following functions are also available: • Bluetooth audio streaming • Office functions with calendar, reminders, notes • Album cover for audio files The functions are moved to the headunit with the 3rd generation Headunit High and the additional use of Combox multimedia (Media) is no longer required. 4.4.3. Telematic Communication Box (TCB) The Telematic Communication Box (TCB) is a permanently installed speech and data modem for the Headunit High. The transmission standard of the TCB is specified in the HSPA standard with 14.4 mbit/s. The customer receives a TCB when the SA6NL connection for Bluetooth and USB devices with BMW Assist is ordered. As most interfaces and functions of Combox are moved to the Headunit High (hands-free function, USB interfaces, speech processing, Bluetooth audio, Office, contacts etc.). The TCB is required for the following functions: • BMW Assist with eCall (emergency-call function) • BMW Online • Remote functions (reception and controller) • "Speech-to-Text" function in Office feature • BMW TeleServices via P-SIM The TCB is always connected to two cell phone antennas. The roof antenna is for the telematics functions of the vehicle. The second antenna should function as an emergency-call antenna in the event of a rollover. The emergency-call function involves sending the data package, as well as setting up a voice contact from the vehicle to the emergency call center. The TCB is prepared and equipped with an additional battery pack in order to guarantee functions independent of the vehicle electrical system. Thus in the future even in the event of an accident with a loss of the vehicle electrical system (destruction of battery, power distribution box or wiring) an emergency call can still be placed. 42 Headunit High 4.

Phase diversity for FM Operating principle of phase diversity Index Explanation B Phase diversity 1 Antenna signal strong 2 Antenna signal weak 3 Antenna amplifier (2x) 4 Tuner module in headunit 5 Digital Signal Processor (DSP) Vehicles with Headunit High are equipped with phase diversity. The radio signals of the two FM antennas are amplified and transmitted to the Headunit High. The power supply for the antenna amplifier is made available by the Headunit High. The radio signals are digitized in the Headunit High. An improved signal is then calculated from the two radio signals with the aid of an algorithm in a digital signal processor (DSP). For updating the list of stations only the signal of one antenna is used temporarily for the radio reception. The signal of the two antennas is required for scanning the frequencies. The interval for updating the list of stations depends on the signal quality of the stronger antenna, but occurs at the latest every four minutes. 46 Headunit High 4. System Components 4.5.2. Intermediate frequency in the AM range For the AM range there is a variable ZF bandwidth in the Headunit High which is dependent on the reception strength. The usual bandwidth of approx. 7 kHz is restricted for a weak signal to 2.4 kHz. The resulting effect is comparable to turning back the treble control. The reduction of the high frequencies was previously done via the so-called High Cut. Here a frequency reduction is only performed on the audio side. With the variable AM-ZF bandwidth one achieves a comparable acoustic effect, but at the same time a significant improvement in the channel separation. An "interfering transmitter" which can be received on a neighboring channel is better suppressed to 30 dB (factor 30). On AM this is important at nighttime. 4.5.3. Bluetooth antenna Since the introduction of the 5-Series Gran Turismo the Bluetooth antenna was incorporated into the wiring harness. With this design a disconnected antenna can no longer be identified by diagnosis. With the use of the Headunit High diagnosis-compatible antennas are now once again used for BMW vehicles. Here the connector is resistance-coded, i.e. a disconnected antenna is immediately recognized by the diagnosis system. For large series vehicles the Bluetooth antenna is located in the rear of the center console (branch rear outlet channel, rear left). 4.5.4. SDARS and IBOC (US) For the US market SDARS or the digital radio IBOC tuner module are located in the tuner module for the satellite radio inside the Headunit High. This was already the case with the introduction of the Car Information Computer (CIC). More information on the connections for SDARS and IBOC is available in Chapter 4.1.3. The SDARS antenna is integrated in the roof antenna. The IBOC HD radio system uses the side bands of the FM frequency band and thus the FM antenna. In this connection, phase diversity in the FM range has a positive influence on the reception of digital HD radio signals. 4.6. Rear seat entertainment system 4.6.1. System overview Two rear seat entertainment systems with a separate RSE control unit are offered in conjunction with the Headunit High for 5-Series, 6-Series Gran Coupe and 7-Series vehicles. A distinction is made here between the rear seat entertainment system SA6FH (high version with radio remote control) and Rear-seat entertainment Professional SA6FR (high version with controller). For vehicles in the 5- Series the Rear-seat entertainment Professional version is not offered with a controller (SA6FR). 47 Headunit High 4.

Front view of RSE control unit The big addition to RSE would be the ability to use Navigation and set destinations from the rear seat. Another new feature in comparison to the rear seat entertainment system introduced in the F01 is the RSE control unit with USB interface in the front. In comparison to the predecessor RSE control unit, the second AUX In input (audio right and left, video) is discontinued. The new RSE control unit includes two radio interfaces for the connection of two wireless headphones. These replace the infrared system of the previous RSE system. The same RSE control unit is used for the two rear seat entertainment system versions. 49 Headunit High 4. System Components The CD/DVD drive supports a variety of media just like its predecessor (for details see F01/F02 rear seat entertainment systems training material available on TIS and ICP). The Gracenote database function is active when playing CD digital audio in the RSE control unit drive as well as when playing in via the Fleadunit High drive. However, due to space restrictions no album cover is displayed when playing. This is reserved exclusively for the Headunit High and the central information display at the front of the vehicle. Track information and album covers of CD digital audio files from the DVD changer are not shown in the rear seat entertainment system. The reason for this is that the rear seat entertainment system does not request information from the Gracenote database in the Headunit High when playing music files from the DVD changer. 1 ® ® ©®® ® ® Front view of rear seat entertainment system control unit (RSE) Index Explanation 1 Eject button for the CD/DVD compartment 2 Radio interface for the right headphone (not visible from outside) 3 Jack socket for the right headphone 4 USB port, rear passenger compartment 5 Input for video signal, external source 6 Input for audio signal, external source, right 7 Input for audio signal, external source, left 8 Jack socket for the left headphone 9 Radio interface for the left headphone (not visible from outside) 50 Headunit High 4.

Radio systems 4.7.1. Radio remote control The radio remote control of the rear seat entertainment system sends the signals along a transmission path via the remote control receiver FBD to the vehicle. For vehicles in the 5-Series and 7-Series this is done via the FBD receiver in the rear window. In the new 3-Series and 6-Series vehicles the FBM receiver is installed as a module near the left C-pillar. The other signal shape agrees with the vehicles in the 5-Series and 7-Series.

Wireless headphones Headphones for the radio transmission The headphones for the previous system used infrared technology, this has now been changed over to radio transmission. With the radio transmission via Kleer protocol a high-end radio transmission in the range of 2.4 GHz was selected, which supports 14 channels. In contrast to traditional Bluetooth protocols, the Kleer protocol ensures uncompromised (loss-free) sound reproduction on the headphones. For details see Chapter 5.8.3. The voltage supply is guaranteed via three typical AAA batteries. 58 Headunit High 4.

For this the menu "Manage music collection" is offered in the option menu. 62 Headunit High 5. Functions Gracenote® The Gracenote database on the hard disk, which adds meta files to the music files, was divided up according to country for the Headunit High. There are therefore the following regional databases on the hard disk: • Europe • Rest of the World • North America • Japan • China/Korea Thanks to this regional division it was possible to establish further features. The Gracenote database now adds track information and album covers when playing CD digital audio. During the import process (ripping) i.e. the changeover of a CD digital audio to a compressed .aac music file, in addition to track information, album covers are now added by Gracenote to the music collection. Update for Gracenote® The latest Gracenote database is made available to the dealer organization 1 -2 times a year with the media package. The update process remains the same in comparison to the CIC. It is done via the service menu. For details on this please refer to the " F01/F02 Audio Systems" training material available on TIS and ICR The update is also possible via the BMW programming system because the Gracenote database was updated on the ISIS. Operation To make the menu items clearer for the customer the symbols have been standardized.

On the one hand via wired connection from a Smartphone or USB stick. On the other hand by means of streaming sources such as Bluetooth. USB stick USB storage media as external audio players have been supported since the ULF-SBX-High (E70). The connection for the interface for the Headunit High is now no longer connected via a separate interface box (ULF-SBX High or Combox). It is connected directly to the headunit. This means that AUX-ln connection with USB socket is always connected directly in the Headunit High. Music track If USB media are connected to the Headunit High via the USB interface, the headunit saves the track information of these USB media. The track information of up to four USB sticks or up to about 40,000 tracks can be saved in the vehicle in this way. If a fifth device is connected or more than 40,000 tracks stored, the information from existing tracks is deleted. Video streaming With the introduction of the Headunit High there is the option to play video files in different container formats (see 4.3.1) in the headunit and to display them on the CID. The video image is shown on the front control display and only when the parking brake is activated or in gear position P. The sound track of the video file can only be played if no audio medium (e.g. MP3 player) is connected via the jack plug of the AUX-IN connection.

A The following systems are not supported for data import: MTP, Devices (iPhone , iPod , etc.) and HFS formatted USB sticks; The data backup/data export of the music collection (backup) is not supported on USB devices with NTFS partitioning! Recovery (backup) of a music collection from the CIC to the Headunit High is not possible with these devices! USB 3.0 is currently not yet supported. However, USB 3.0 end devices are downward compatible and thus compatible with the USB 2.0 socket installed in the vehicle. The maximum speed is then reduced to the USB 2.0 standard. Smartphone Audio and video files can be played with appropriate telephone equipment (telephone optional equipment with the SA6NF connection for Smartphone) via the Headunit High. It is important to ensure that the proper snap-in adapter is used. For example for the Headunit High in conjunction with the iPhone 4S only the "Media" snap-in adapter or "Media with fan" can be used.

POI brands and weather icons The new Navigation has the ability to display icons for POI Brands and weather information. The Points of Interest (POI) icons are currently limited to fuel stations (icon of brand) and BMW Centers (shows BMW Roundel). These icons are available from map scales 40 ft - 1 mile. As the user zooms into or out of the map, the icons will be automatically adjusted to include as many as possible, but without cluttering the screen. Users can also view weather information icons in the map overview. This feature is standard with Navigation system and not tied to any BMW Assist Plan. 70 Headunit High 5. Functions These icons are available from map scales 10 miles - 250 miles. As the user zooms into or out of the map, the icons will be automatically adjusted to include as many cities as possible but without cluttering the screen. This feature is only available as part of the BMW Assist Safety Plan. 5.4.4. Advanced Real-Time Traffic Information (ARTTI) The Advanced Real-Time Traffic Information (ARTTI) of BMW ConnectedDrive developed for BMW navigation systems increases reliability and precision in the creation, communication and use of real time traffic situations for the purpose of route computation and appropriate diversion recommendations. Advanced Real-Time Traffic Information (ARTTI) is different from Real Time Traffic Information (RTTI). ARTTI is available exclusively with BMW's newest navigation system (available on selected 2013 Model Year or later vehicles) while RTTI has been available since as far back as 2006. ARTTI is a further development of the previous traffic information system (from ConnectedDrive), RTTI Real-Time Traffic Information. The most important advantages of ARTTI over the RTTI are quicker and more comprehensive data transfer via mobile radio and the SIM card integrated in the vehicle in the TCB control unit. As well as covering highways, the new system also includes national roads and numerous inner city connections. ARTTI is only available on vehicles equipped with Navigation system (SA 609) and in combination with optional equipment BMW Assist (SA612) and a valid ConnectedDrive contract (Safety Plan). In addition to the information sources used by RTTI in the determination of traffic situations (traffic messages from the police and traffic jam sensors), movement profiles of cell phones made anonymous and the data from traffic control systems are taken into consideration in ARTTI. The movement profiles are determined with the aid of specific road users (e.g. truck fleets, taxis, etc.) whose navigation systems are linked to a control center. The traffic data are made available about two minutes after the headunit is started. ARTTI is updated every 3 minutes to ensure that customers always get the latest traffic information and, when the navigation’s dynamic guidance feature is turned on, the system will offer routes for rerouting around traffic jams of 5 minutes or longer. With ARTTI the traffic flow is depicted in the traffic flow map using different colors: • Green: flowing traffic (recommended speed limit) • Yellow: traffic slowing (< 50% of recommended speed limit) • Orange: stop and go traffic (< 25% of recommended speed limit) • Red: traffic jam (<12.5% of recommended speed limit) 71 Headunit High 5. Functions Look at the following two graphics for comparison between RTTI and the new ARTTI system. ARTTI screen The "green" color for traffic information is unique to the ARTTI system. RTTI screen There is no "green" color used for traffic information in RTTI, only red, orange, and yellow. Below please find the map which shows the traffic flow in full image format. The Traffic Info symbol can be found in the symbol bar. Diagram of traffic flow in traffic overview (Traffic Info menu) with active ARTTI Recommended diversion If disruptions occur on the computed route with a calculated delay of less than 20 minutes, the traffic information symbol in the symbol bar is displayed in yellow. If the delay is calculated at more than 20 minutes or if there is a road closure, the symbol is displayed in red. If a diversion is sensible on the basis of the current traffic situation and the associated disruption, this is recommended to the driver. The extra mileage for the recommended diversion and the estimated time saving are displayed. 72 Headunit High 5.

Here not only the correct lane is recommended to the driver in CID (split screen), instrument panel and HUD, but he is accompanied when turning off. "Enhanced guiding" function Index Explanation 1 Vehicle approaches crossroads. "Enhanced guiding" Assist is shown on split screen. 2 Vehicle just before turn-off process 3 Vehicle at turn-off process 5.4.8. Updating navigation data For the Headunit High the update of navigation data can be done via a USB stick or DVD depending on the market. The reason for the different versions is that the map of Europe for example had to be split over three DVDs due to its size. A USB stick with corresponding capacity is practical here. The navigation data (map material) can also be updated via ISTA programming as with all current BMW vehicles. 75 Headunit High 5. Functions 5.5. Telephone systems 5.5.1.

The telephone to be used can be selected in the Options menu. • The entries in the phone book of both registered cell phones can be selected via speech input. • Up to 5000 contacts can be loaded from each cell phone via Bluetooth to the vehicle (i.e. a total of 10,000). In addition, a maximum of 1000 online contacts (from the ConnectedDrive portal of the customer) and 1000 contacts which can be stored on the hard disk. Registration and connection The previous submenu "Bluetooth" for registration and connection of a cell phone is now located in the "Settings" menu under the submenu "Connections". For details see Chapter 5.7.1. 5.5.2. Voice input for Office Message Dictation “Message Dictation” is a feature that allows you to use “speech-to-text” to dictate emails and text messages. Speech is converted to text using the menu item “New” in the Office submenu. This done via a BMW server (also called "backend"), which sends the encrypted voice data to the service provider Nuance . Nuance then sends the message back as a text file to the headunit. This then 76 Headunit High 5. Functions appears as text in CID. The text can then be sent as a SMS or email via the customers compatible cell phone. Usage of this service beyond the included 60-day trial period requires a separate subscription with Nuance.

After the text is sent as a SMS or email it is also possible to respond to an email with help of the "Message Dictation" function. Index Explanation 1 SMS 2 Email 3 Email with voice memo Requirements A prerequisite for the "Message Dictation" function is a speech input system. This is no longer activated via the SA620. The speech input system is connected to the telephone optional equipment SA6NL. In addition, the SA249 is still required for a multifunction steering wheel. 78 Headunit High 5. Functions The "Message Dictation" function is only available for the SA6NL. The function is an additional service of ConnectedDrive but requires a Convenience Plan subscription. For new vehicles with ConnectedDrive a 60-day trial period is enabled. Usage of this service beyond the included 60- day trial period requires a separate subscription with Nuance. More information is available via www. nuance.com/b mw. A cell phone is also required which is registered and connected to the vehicle. The cell phone must fully support the "Mail Access Profile (MAP)" Bluetooth standard. Some cell phone manufacturers only implement some of the MAP profile. For the launch of the Headunit High only select devices from RIM satisfy this standard. A valid email address must also be added and a cell phone with a valid cell phone contract registered and connected as the cell phone is used as a modem for this service. As of July 2012, the Message Dictation feature is only supported by the following devices: • Nokia N8 • Blackberry 9300, 9700, 9800, 9810, 9860, 9900 • Samsung Galaxy S2 • HTC Sensation • Motorola Milestone 2 Note: For further information regarding cell phone compatibility please refer to bmwusa.com/ bluetooth. Voice memos All notes from the cell phone and the notes included in the vehicle are shown in the menu item Notes allowing for their compatibility. The notes are then transferred from the main telephone and additional telephone. Recording and exporting a voice memo A spoken voice memo can be input in the vehicle using the microphone and recorded with the Headunit High. This voice memo (sound bite) can then be sent as an email attachment or saved in “Notes” as an audio file. Voice memos can also be exported via the USB port in the center console. This is done from the Options menu. An audio file is then stored on the USB stick in a .aac container. A_ The Message Dictation feature is not available for the iPhone®. The reason for this is that Apple® does not fully support BMW Office functions (Bluetooth profile does not support the transmission of Office data). 5.5.3. Office calendar display The new headunit offers a graphic visualization of dates in the Office function similar to MS Outlook. The daily view and the navigation in the calendar have been simplified significantly. An exchange server connection is not available. 79 Headunit High 5. Functions C?

Schematic diagram of new calendar monthly view A For the iPhone® (4, 4S) the calendar can only currently be accessed through (SA6NR) BMW Connected Calendar App. The reason for this is that the current Apple® iPhone® Bluetooth profile does not support the transmission of calendar data, for more information regarding BMW “Tested” phones please go to bmwusa/bluetooth.com.
